Abstract
This article contains data related to the research article titled “Deformation of scalpel blades after incision of gingival tissue in pig mandibles. An ex vivo study” (Díaz et al., 2017) [1]. The presented data give information on the Rheological properties of a number 3 Bard Parker scalpel blades from the Paramount® and Elite® brands. The loss of the cutting capacity of the scalpel blades was evaluated, determining fracture efforts by incisions on gingival tissues. The Elite® brand presented greater efforts (41.40; 52.70; 59.00; 61.17; 64.00; 66.78; 72.15 and 74.18 Newton (N)) than the scalpel blades from the Paramount® brand (49.60; 51.40; 51.90; 52.33; 58.96; 62.24 and 69.08 N). The cutting effort increases with the number of cuts performed by each scalpel blade.
Highlights
This article contains data related to the research article titled “Deformation of scalpel blades after incision of gingival tissue in pig mandibles
Data on fracture efforts at cutting can be used to determine the maximum number of incisions that should be performed with the same scalpel blade in a surgical procedure
Materials In this data article, a number 3 Bard Parker scalpel blades from the Paramounts and Elites brands, both acquired from commercial houses existent in the market
